    Whoa, I'll be setting aside the entirety of my mid month paycheck in case you decide to sell any! Seeing as it's the last full one I'll get before having to pay back my school loans :(

    Man, I'd love an old N64 kiosk. Some of my fondest memories of the N64 were playing Mario Kart on a kiosk inside of the Blockbuster near my house. I would always run straight to it while my dad looked for movies. Star Fox or Mario Kart were always in there...

    Dreamcast

    If you have a dreamcast one I am totally interested in it. I'm going to be in NY in early October so I could even pick it up.

    Want to see pics!

    I've been busy I only have days to move it all. I'm in a pinch to move it all...

    Brought home all of the kiosk consoles, sadly the plexi domes on the kisoks are horribly
    scratched from dust.

    Many of these are badly twisted and bent and will have to be sold as scrap :-(

    Metal. Problem is they were bought as scrap originally. I can see two crunched up Jaguar kiosks in the bottom of the pile.

    Is it possible to get any logo ect from them? Should be able to get a few dollars at the scrap yard.

    Can the bent sections not be replaced?

    Yeah sell the broken ones. There are people here who can recover such damage (Look at Parris' arcade machine)

    I'd love to see a picture of what this twisted pile looks like.

    How do you come into hauls like this? The developer stuff I can see, liquidations and such, but where do you look to find a ton of scrapped store kiosks?
